Ripley Miller Fibre Buffer Tube Scorer FTS – 1.6–6.0mm
The Ripley Miller FTS Fibre Buffer Tube Scorer is a precision hand tool designed for the quick and accurate scoring of fibre optic buffer tubes ranging from 1.6mm to 6.0mm in diameter. Its simple one-step operation makes it a practical tool for fibre technicians carrying out cable preparation, installation and maintenance.
The FTS uses a fixed hardened steel blade that is factory-set for precise scoring without requiring adjustment. This helps provide consistent operation while eliminating the need to configure the blade for different compatible buffer tube sizes.
Manufactured from a strong acetal polymer, the scorer combines durability with a compact and lightweight design. At just 28g, it is easy to carry as part of a fibre engineer's everyday tool kit.
Designed to replace the need for multiple scoring tools across its supported diameter range, the Ripley Miller FTS provides a straightforward solution for preparing buffer tubes before fibre access and splicing.
